Italian text
Amarilli, mia bella
Non credi, o del mio cor dolce desio,
D'esser tu l'amor mio?
Credilo pur, e se timor t'assale,
Prendi questo mio strale,
Aprimi il petto e vedrai scritto in core:
Amarilli, Amarilli, Amarailli è il mio amore.
("Dubitar non ti vale" may be used as a more polite alternative to "Prendi questo mio strale" - see notes on score)
English translation
Amarilli, lovely Amarilli
Believest thee not, oh my heart's sweet desire
tis thou my heart aspires?
Believe, tis true: yet should a dread besiege thee
doubt not, tis vane
rip my bosom open, and there inscribed you'll see
Amarilli, Amarilli, Amaraillys
My sweetest love art thee
Hebrew translation
אמארילי, יפתי תמה
אינך סמוכה, תשוקת לבי המתוקה
שאכן משאת אהבתי את, נאווה
אנא, בטחי: ואם חרדת ספק תקפתך
ספק שווא הוא, יפתי
קרעי חזי לרווחה, ושם חרוט בלבבי קראי
אמארילי, אמארילי, בחירת לבי היא
אמארילי אהובתי
